Randy Orton destroys Christian in 'Unsanctioned' match with help of Ric Flair on WWE RAW
On this week's WWE RAW, former WWE Champion Randy Orton defeated Hall of Famer Christian in an Unsanctioned match with the help of WWE legend Ric Flair.
This week's WWE RAW saw Christian get involved in the Edge vs Randy Orton storyline. The Hall of Famer appeared on WWE RAW and slammed Randy Orton for severely injuring Edge at WWE Backlash. The two argued for a couple of minutes before Randy Orton challenged Christian to an Unsanctioned match. With the help of Ric Flair, Randy Orton took down Christian, which led to WWE medics taking Christian out of the ring in a stretcher.
According to various reports, Edge will return to WWE RAW in the coming weeks and call out Randy Orton. The two will start the Edge vs Randy Orton 3 storyline, which could end at the upcoming Extreme Rules PPV. However, some believe that Edge vs Randy Orton 3 could take place at the SummerSlam 2020, which is more popular than Extreme Rules. Reports claim that Edge vs Randy Orton 3 will end the long feud between the two rivals. Until now, the two have faced each other twice with Edge winning at WrestleMania 36 and Randy Orton winning at WWE Backlash.
